Maine Telemark Film Festival
New England Telemark (NET) and the Bowdoin Outing Club (BOC) present the fifth annual Maine Telemark Film Festival, featuring the three finalists of the National Amateur Telemark Film Contest, and Lipstick Films' newest Telemark ski movie, Since We Last Spoke, at 7:00 PM, Friday, November 9, in Kresge Auditorium, in the Visual Arts Center on the Bowdoin campus.
The Maine Telemark Film Festival is free and open to the public. A lobby bazaar will feature refreshments, reps from resorts, gear manufacturers and local ski shops, and raffles prizes. For more information contact New England Telemark at 207-751-9319, telefilm@netelemark.com or visit www.netelemark.com.
By popular demand, this year's festival once again features homegrown tele flicks from around the country on the theme "What is the spirit of telemark to YOU?" Judges culled three finalists, whose 10-minute shorts will be shown at the fest, with the winning entries determined that night by the audience.
